maybe the sign should read “Goat Feltchers not welcome here!!!” or “Who wants to go Dutch?” “Ireland welcomes dutch Investment bankers” “Dutch Rush fans Convention!” ---

Yup, I’ve - ahem - “delegated” the last couple of tasks, making it possible for me to leave work at this unseemly early hour. Let’s see: I need to pack, locate my bloody plane tickets and set the alarm clock. Right, I’m SO out of here. I’ll be meeting you at Avalon - I’m the drunk skinny guy with the strange accent. S. Norman signs off. “Off we go, into the wild blue yonder…” ---

Holy cow, this thread has a life of its own! You leave for a few days and all hell breaks loose. I’m really looking forward to this! I hope you appreciate the fact that I am typing this in a cyber cafe when I could be drinking some very fine Irish beer instead. Fuck jet lag. IRELAND ROCKS! Ok, so I just yelled. Bite me. This place is amazing! Damn. I have got to bring one of dem Irish lads home with me. 😉 Yojimbo, I hope you will be greeting Coldie with that sign. Take a picture as well! I wish I could see that. By the way Tater, a word of advice re: weather. Don’t bother to comb your hair. It’s useless. So, in less than 24 hours, we’ll be meeting in the lobby. Woohoo! Don’t forget the Trions are coming as well. Ok, back to the booze now. Last night we tried the Musical Pub Crawl. It was a hoot. Can’t wait to try the Literary Pub Crawl. 🙂 I’m outta here! Harp beckons. Cheerio! ---

Just got off the phone with yojimbo. I could understand him even! These Oirish aren’t all THAT bad, Tater! OK, that was a cheap shot since I know she just logged off and won’t be on again untill sunday 🙂 Anyways, I’m looking forward to meeting y’all. Got the day off tomorrow, so I have all the time in the world to pack and get ready. Tomorrow, 19:30, Dublin International. I even know what sign to look for 😉 ---

Ha! You underestimate my addiction to the internet, Clogster!!! **I can’t believe I freaking overslept today!!!** On my way to the trainstation now, no time for chit chat. Some of us aren’t lucky enough to live in cities with int’l airports and have to leave 4 freaking hours early. Hugs, kisses, all that good stuff. WOO HOO and Sue - flicka flicka!! ---

Woohoo! I’m in a cybercafe in Dublin, in Ireland - having made a complete arse of myself in Heathrow by forgetting the time zone difference and going into a panic about making my connection. Hint: Under these circumstances do NOT, and I mean do NOT, forget your carry-on at the security check. But I’m here, it’s raining, and there’s a Guiness with my name on it within a 100 yard radius, I can FEEL it. The Avalon is quite cool, by the way - of course their computer network broke down while I checked in - and apparently my reservation was made for three beds/one night, not the other way around. Right, out to liberate some Guiness - I have a feeling that it’s getting claustrophobic from being cooped up in those barrels. Signing off - S. Norman ---

It’s the final countdown… 2 hours until we meet at the hostel. Woohoo! My legs are killing me, I’m exhausted, but hell, I’m ready and willing to party. Ladies, I can’t stress enough how adorable the Irish men are. 😃 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/so-i-married-a-teenage-dubdope-thread-or-dubdope2000-the-tart-with-the-cart/33710.md?page=11) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/so-i-married-a-teenage-dubdope-thread-or-dubdope2000-the-tart-with-the-cart/33710.md?page=13)
